Ibanez RG370AHMZ-BMTStandard

Amazing Guitar

I'm suspicious to say, but I'm a big Ibanez fan. The bridge and locking system are exceptional and super stab, and the tone of this guitar is perfect to plug and play, but I change the pickups for Crunch Lab, Air Norton, and Liquifire all from Dimarzio. Now I have a Super Ibanez RG370AHMZ.

Totally love this guitar

One thing I realised when looking at the guitar up close was that it looks wayyyyyy better than the images or videos online. The body and neck match so well with the blue colour it is stunning.

The guitar came out of the box very well set up and intonated. Fretwork is good but not perfect (for the price range very good). The only negative is that there was some sticky residue (probably from covering tape after fret polishing, on the fretboard), which means at least fretwork is done during production. Just the fretwork could be done better (on a visual aspect, play and feelwise its totally fine) but you can not expect 1000euro + guitar fretwork on a 500 euro guitar.

The sound is VERY good for non signature pickups. I am running throught a focusrite and using amplitube and getting awesome sounds. I havent found much use for the middle pickup but it does give that straty tone if thats what you are looking for. Flexible but not amazing.

The tremolo is very good. It was a pain to setup but once its set its set. Its very easy to adjust the action althought I would like to be able to adjust string action individually as an extra. Overall very happy, guitar stays in tune just fine.

For the price I think this guitar is best on the market. I seriously think its better than many guitars worth 700-800 euros.

So far I am very happy with it.

Decent fot the price

I have it for 2 weeks and i play every day for a couple of hours and i have to say it sounds good not the best but its really god for the its price.

They're 2 negatives tho on the low E on the 10th fret it is buzzing too much and i have to get it fixed ( it came like that ) and the second on is there is a super small chip ( not noticeable by eye, or feel ) on the neck

Overall very happy with it playes great its a fast playing guitar and its very good for the price would recomend for a good budget guitar

No sticker for handle with care

It's too late to write feedback but the once disappointing about my order was the box of my order was a deface and no indication to handle with care no caution at all i was so shocked when I saw the box of the guitar , good thing that my guitar is still working and still good. Maybe next time please indicate to put coution in out order please. Thank you. overall the guitar is fine foe me.

Great guitar for good price

Been playing this guitar for 1,5 years and it?s great. The HSH pickup configuration gives you a lot of versatility when it comes to tone.

The neck is a bit thin but very comfortable to play in my opinion.

The FR-tremolo does take some time to get used to, but except for that, it works flawlessly. If you don't want a tremolo you could get Ibanez RG421 instead as it has pretty similar features.

Great Locking trem guitar for many styles at great price.

I have played for many years and was looking to see if I would like a guitar with a Locking Tremolo.. I also wanted something that would play some of the heavier tunes better. This is my first Ibanez (owning quite a few Fenders).. And here we go:

First impression: what a beautiful instrument - at this price point the Moon blue burst really impresses - what a nice finish for this price point. It is also a good weight (not too heavy, not too light) Ash body.

Finish: the overall finish from Body to Neck is good - the frets were finished well and the neck is untreated and smooth.

Pick-ups and sounds: having bought this as a 'shredder', it is surprisingly versatile in the sound area and suits many styles. It shreds very well though. Humbuckers are hot but combined with single coil can give some nice mellow tones.

Tremolo: was the feature for me I wanted to try. Equiped with the Edge Zero II entry level locking tremolo, I found tuning and set-up easy.. I played and divebombed and pulled away and it stayed well in tune. If you're a serial divebomber you will probably need some fine tuning now and again... but nothing annoying (I guess if you're a serial divebomber, you know this ;-) )

Having played it for a couple of days now, I haven't been able to find any Cons yet.

All said, I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality at this pricepoint!

Great value for the money

I own this guitar for a month already and after having some time to evaluate it, I can say that I am very pleased with the quality. I did not expect it to be so high for this price range. The neck is very smooth, the color is gorgeous and the sound is great.

If I could find one disadvantage so far, it is the tremolo bar that tends to not stay in the position that you (try) to lock it in (unless you turn the screw really hard). I can't say that I am an experienced floyd-style tremolo user, maybe this happens with other floyd tremolos, but I find it somewhat annoying sometimes. But of course this is almost not an issue.

Overall a great guitar, I would definitely recommend it for beginner-mid level players!

Great look and sound, poor quality

Looks really amazing. Sound is clear and bright with very detailed mids and somewhat scooped lows. I found it great for practice, where all nuances and mistakes are visible.

I can't say the tremolo is good, after few divebombs it went out of tune, but maybe I would get used to it and find the way to use it without going out of tune... But in general I did not see much difference between this Edge-Zero II and cheap FRS that I have on my other guitar. Actually my old FRS stays in tune better, or it's me being accustomed to using it in a way that it stays in tune.

The reason why I sent it back is poor quality, particularly of the fretboard. It looks like the frets were cut very inaccurately, so when they were installed the edges were so uneven that it could not be fixed by the filing. Nevertheless, it did not stop the unknown "master", so he kept going and cut through the fretboard leaving ugly ditches next to the most uneven frets. One can ignore such a minor flaws if it would do the job and the frets were smooth, but not at all! In fact they were still scratching my hand, so after practicing one arpegio on 10-12th frets for about one hour, unpleasant scratchy feeling in my hand has become so intense that I decided to return the guitar.

I have never seen such a poor finish before. Although all my previous guitars costed below 200 Euro, none of them had received such a fretboard treatment. And of course I was not expecting it from a guitar more than 2x more expensive.

However, sound and look-wise it is beautiful and now, when I don't have it anymore, I'm thinking that maybe these fretboard trenches are not so bad and one could get rid of the scratchy feeling by more filing of the edges... After all, the look and sound are really nice!

Great guitar for a small price !

I bought this guitar because I was looking for something versatile, comfortable and good-looking. And I must admit my choice was perfect!

The maple fretboard is extremely comfortable, ideal for shredding and bending; the neck is thin and unfinished, therefore not sticky at all.

The color of the body is absolutely stunning, some of the best ever realized on electric guitars.

The zero-point system bridge allows a stable tuning even after hours of playing and the pickups are great for their price range, both with clean tones and distorted tones.

I use it to rehearsal with my band and it never lets me down.

The shipping was fast and the packaging kept the product safe.

Perfect choice for a medium budget!
